The 10-year-old identical twins learned about each other a few weeks before Christmas, after Audrey's mother, Jennifer Doering, discovered a photo of the girls together as infants while doing research about Audrey's family history online in December.

"We just happened to stumble upon a picture, and from there we were able to find that there were two of them," Doering told WOWA.

After doing a little more digging, Doering found out that girl was Gracie and got in touch with her family.

The girls began video chatting, which allowed them to communicate with each other for a few weeks, but they didn't meet in person until this week.
